It’s been 3 summers, still haven’t learned how to swim. At summer camp while the others are swimming in the deep water, I wade in the shallows and practice “swimming” from corner to corner.
Only when I switch camps and start Flamingo Park (free) day camp, do things change.
We pay 10 cents to get in the pool. All of us kids are lined up in the pool to “take swimming lessons”. The instructor says “Swim”. And we swim. That is, I took the plunge and really swam, just like everybody else. That’s how I learned to swim. (to teach/act)
